Sommario/riassunto

"The Case for Centralized Federalism goes against the current prevailing opinion on federal-provincial relations, which consistently supports reducing the federal government's powers. Edited by Gordon DiGiacomo and Maryantonett Flumian, this book argues that the federal government is best placed to respond to issues of national interest and create effective policy." "With contributions from Gordon DiGiacomo, Michael D. Behiels, Brooke Jeffrey, Cheryl N. Collier, Maryantonett Flumian and Inger Weibust, the book analyzes the federal government's recent deferential approach to intergovernmental relations and condemns their submissiveness. They locate the origin of this approach in the ambivalent attitudes of the country's founders and in short-sighted electoral objectives. They show how it has hampered federal politics and administration, creating a federal government both unwilling and unable to assume leadership." "For the case against centralization, look for the Case for Decentralized Federalism edited by Ruth Hubbard and Gilles Paquet, also published by the University of Ottawa Press."--BOOK JACKET.
